Geo filters and saving non listed games ping heatmaps questions

[crunkjuice1]

So I’m trying to help my friends out setting up an R2 router and I’m used to helping with Xbox consoles but in there household it’s an Xbox series X and a PC used for gaming. We got past all the console settings and saving titles like halo infinite, cod vanguard,  cod warzone but when it came to the PC side of gaming questions on the ground filter or ping heatmaps the gaming listings were a bit of a downer for them. Some titles mentioned were Diablo immortal,overwatch, Red Dead and the like but my friends seemed turned down on a lack of those titles listed, and if it would be just as easy to populate saves for servers for those titles.  I honestly don’t personally play those titles and I never have had to try to create anything for a non listed game. I told them that from a gaming standpoint gamers that love those title take things seriously/competitively as well as those into call of duty or halo. I’m sure that DumaOS is flexible enough to cater those multiplayer titles as well. 
 

Anyone reading this that has experience with such titles and have configured DumaOS to help them please feel free to discuss this and if all possible pass along examples of settings for such games like Diablo and the like. We are in the U.S.A and my friends have friends over in Europe that they play with so they don’t see the value or purpose in running a geo filter. Is the PC supposed to stay in spectator mode or filtered mode?  At such distances is there any point at all to even try to use DumaOS to keep lag at a minimum?  This is a learning experience for us thanks for understanding.

We are continuously working on updating our current DPI classifications so as time goes on you'll notice more and more games supported by default in DumaOS.

What I'd suggest doing in the mean time is going to Device Manager, click on the PC and change it's device type to Playstation.

Then, you can add to to Geo-filter, selecting 'Choose Manually' when prompted to pick a service. 

You can also add it to Traffic Prioritisation in QoS and select 'Games Console' as a service for it.

That should work much better for your friend until we've got more games support.
